okay, slightly difficult because the photo seems to get chopped off, but I have to look closely to work out who's who, although all will become obvious over time

the two wild bronze turkeys - I was doing early morning spraying & came across what I thought was a dead turkey, till she very slowly stood up & stepped aside to reveal two babies - who, since Ma didn't move fast, decided to freeze, so I scooped them up & continued thistle spraying with them tucked inside my t-shirt. Mother turkey & two friends book booked around the paddock looking for them, making me feel guilty - but chances are she started with a lot more & lost them and a week later they're doing just fine in the brooder - pondering whether to raise them to a decent size and just releasing them?

the rest were planned, although rather surprised to get such yellow looking turkey babies from the first cross of a Royal Palm & bronze mother - but I suspect they'll darken

the Leghorns are from the egg producing lines - not fancy show stuff, just good honest layers (thanks for the contact Marina), so looking forward to them growing up!

and the Silkies, were ummm, just filling up the incubator!

There's 15 Hamburg babies in the brooder next door and the big incubator is in the process of exploding eggs (or hatching anyway) right now!I do not count my birds.... but I suspect I need to sell some!

I thought turkey poults would be noticeably bigger than the chicks, but it's not obvious in the photo at least. Seatil's comment gives me a clue though. Is it the leghorns with the yellow legs and the turkeys with the kind of pink legs??

I am looking after these turkeys for a friend we only have one hen and as far as I know she's not laying again yet - not sure how many batches a turkey will do in one season? she incubated this lot and then I snatched the babies

I'm just checking if its okay to sell just the bronze looking ones - I think raising 4 might be easier than doing 10!

I have the okay to sell the bronze looking turkeys - I have it written down on the calendar the day the hatched - so I'll need to check that when I get home

2 are wild bronze babies and probably a week older than the rest

4 are from a bronze female crossed with a Royal Palm tom - not sure if it will make any difference to their adult markings, or whether breeding them together would get you any light/white/palm markings in the next generation - I had expected all the babies to come out bronze and my plan was to breed them with a Royal Palm again, hoping the next generation would show that colouring

these guys are currently kept inside but with no heatingfeeding them coxi chick crumble

I have Dimetrosol (I think that's the spelling) which is what you put in their water to stop black leg - my plan is to put them on that when they go outside, till they get a bit bigger - so I can share a bit to go with them, as a 'just in case'

think they need to go as a group of 6, they're sensitive little things, I wouldn't want to stress themif the 'neighbour' is interested PM me

actually thinking about it - it might be better to split the group of 6 and sell as '4 Royal Palm crosses' and then I'll look at what to do with the 2 wild bronze ones - they're a bit bigger than the rest now!
